Society changes at an unprecedented speed. So does people's views toward their jobs. This has aroused a heated discussion whether people's jobs own more happiness than their social life dose. From my point of view, compared with working, my social life means more.

To begin with, admittedly, there exist some people who relish their job and consider it whole part of their life. For instance, an honorable professor in my university spends all his lifetime with his students and colleagues. He poses all his heart to the studying field of Chinese film. Only by referring to this concerned field, can he have the eyes lustrous. Without any other social activities, he lives a very satisfying life.

However, it literally differs person to person. As for me, job is merely one aspect of my life. True, it provides the opportunity to enlarge my vision on profuse communicating methods and help me be seemingly mature. But the vision is limited to certain fields, knowledges without any connections with job still stay in an uncultivated state, such as skills of veraciously making friends, spirits of exploring new areas, kindness to others and so on. Lacking these crucial elements, I wonder whether it can be a happy life.

Perhaps even more significantly, social life can help maintain a good health status. People could select a multitude of activities which make benefits for their physical health. For people like me, I play tennis every weekend, resulting in that I have not caught a cold for almost three years. And this offers the requisite basic of a happy life. In addition, social life also could be make advantages of by diverting concentration then assuage spiritual pressure. We could travel and spot various scenery with diverse people, make fun of different circles of friends, experience other's lifestyles, explore deeper information of beloved fields.

In sum, social life could better life quality and life contentment due to many reasons discussed above. Therefore, not...

...If job and sociallife were two entirely independent elements, the assertion that my job influences my personal happiness more than does my sociallife would be well accepted. Unfortunately, in too many days, and in too many circumstances, my job and my sociallife entangle together, although they are not like the warps and weft of my personal textile of happiness.
My job renders me immense happiness day and night, in spring and in winter as well. This is not because my job is special or distinctly different from yours, my brothers and sisters, nor is it because my job gives me more money or other intangible income measured against the mundane criteria（世俗评判标准）. But it is because I have a very special attitude towards my job. To put it exactly, I am always enthusiastic and even exuberant when I work. I firmly believe that whatever the job is, it is significant to my mental and menial life to the Lord and my God. I work for the glory of the Lord and my God rather than, as the multitude mortals do, for the sake of the Gold. Thus, wherever I am, whatever I do, I am happy. I take job as part of life or an inevitable experience of my spiritual pilgrim process....

...Happiness is commonly associated with pleasure and contentment. These are fairly subjective states of being, and their causes are equally subjective. However, when it comes to work or sociallife, employment clearly has the greater effect on happiness. Whether a job provides a sociallife, supports it, or interferes with it, it is tightly bound tohappiness.
For many people, work is their source of happiness in life. They follow their passions and don’t regard what they do as work. Their co-workers become their friend group, merging sociallife and work life into one. They often have jobs that make an impact on the world, and offer them contentment and self-fulfillment. These impassioned people see an outside sociallife as inconsequential, and they willingly and consciously give it up in favor of work they love.
A job that regularly interferes with a normal sociallife creates an unbalanced life and lessens happiness. Hourly workers must often work overtime or on holidays, interfering with planned activities. Salaried workers frequently bring their work home with them, or they worry about their work responsibilities while at home. Others have to...

...Yourlife or No Life
The topic of abortion has fluttered through the hearts of Americans as it has created a 2-sided coin that has American divided into two. But Juno, a movie released in December 2007, has created a gray area for Americans. The movie depicts a young free-willed sixteen years old, Juno MacGuff, and places her in a dilemma, pregnancy. “She has a blue-collar background, complete with parents who’ve never heard of Pilates and hoard kitsch in their house.” says Ann Hulbert, in, Juno and the Culture Wars (pg. 396). Juno then takes a ride the emotional rollercoaster of pregnancy as she experiences the good, the bad, and the ugly. She ultimately decides to put her baby up for adoption after thoughts of abortion. “But among Juno’s distinctive charms is that it seems to have disarmed both sides of the family values debate.” says Hulbert, leaving Juno satisfying the hearts of divided Americans.
Just like Juno, Bill Clinton’s speech to the Democratic National Convention, in August 28th, 1996 stated, “Abortion should not only be safe and legal, it should be rare.” Clinton’s statement like Juno, has created an idea that both sides of the coin can agree on. In today generation, the purpose to protect women is lost in the stormy clouds of debate between the 2 sides of the coin. One side of the coin believes in pro-choice, women...

BS Social Work -1
Agree or DisagreeSocial work is a profession that’s centred around people. This profession works to protect vulnerable people. But being a social worker is a dangerous job. To be a social worker you need to be able to manage a heavy workload and manage time effectively. Social work can be emotionally demanding. Dealing with other people pain and suffering is demanding. Being a social worker is very stressful. You need to enhance many skills in social work which is very hard.
Many of the social workers jobs entail home visits, I found it very stressful, unsafe, and frustrating. Most of the social workers are stressed out and too overworked. I didn’t want to go home visits and out of town if I’m already old. Most social workers intend to find another job because being a social worker is very stressful and unhealthy because they can’t take care of themselves. It is a very exhausting profession. Most of them spend their time finding a new job. Social workers didn’t have the one to take care of them. Social workers are frustrated and undervalued. Social workers go where other professionals don’t. One mistake of a social...

...A child asks his father to give him twenty five dollars without a reason. His father questions his son’s need for money; however, he still gives his son what he has asked for. After receiving the money, the son asks his father how much he gets paid per hour of work. His father answers that. With the salary of a doctor, he is paid fifty dollars for each hour of work at the hospital. Then the little child holds his father’s hand and leads him to his little room, takes him to his bed, and then turns over his pillow. It surprises the father when he sees another twenty five dollars already laying there. It is the money that the little son asked his mother to give him the other day. Now, he gives all of the fifty dollars to his father as a payment for one hour to stay and play with him. Does this little story make you think? Does this situation sound familiar to you? Why does the child have to do this? It’s because of money; money cut off the link between the father and the son. Many people think that money is more important than anything in their live; however, there is still something very important that money can’t buy.
Money is very powerful and can help people buy everything they want, achieve whatever they need. That is the thought of most of the populace. Many people include the word money when they were asked to pick five things considered important to their lives. In a short article, “Money, Markets and Madness,” Vanessa Baird addresses...
